A cigarette in honor of Upali Dharmadasa; I threw a ciggy on the floor. And then picked it up. Smoked. To say my goodbye

He was a legend.

And he was a decent, kind guy. He was my father's friend.

I feel some pain about it.

I guess, I'm human

I was practically living in his house during my childhood

As I was so tight with Udesh and aunty

I just disconnected in 2018, out of fear of Thilanga

And then I saw almost 10 years in 2026

I'm going to wrap this up, and move on

I think grief, or pain, hits in waves
